Kittencal'S Baked Acorn Squash

1. 1

   Set oven to 400 degrees F.

2. 2

   Grease a small baking dish with high sides.

3. 3

   Place each half of squash cut-side up into the baking dish.

4. 4

   Add in about 1/2 inch water into the bottom of the baking dish so that the skins will not burn and the squash won't get dried out.

5. 5

   In a small bowl combine the cinnamon with soft butter.

6. 6

   Coat the inside of each half with 2 teaspoons soft butter, mixture then add in 2 tablespoons of brown sugar to the cavity of each half.

7. 7

   Drizzle 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup over the brown sugar.

8. 8

   Bake uncovered for about 1 hour and 10-15 minutes or until the squash is very soft and the tops are browned.

9. 9

   Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 20-30 minutes (this will allow the brown sugar/butter mixture to thicken slightly).

10. 10

    Using a spoon drizzle the buttery sugar mixture over any exposed area of the baked squash.

11. 11

    Serve and enjoy!
